Music
professor
receives
Ersted
Award
Peter Bergquist, 42-year-old
associate professor of music
history, theory and bassoon, will
receive the University’s 1973
Ersted Award for Distinguished
Teaching at the June 10 Com
mencement services.
The Ersted Award is made
available through a trust fund
from the late A.J. Ersted of
Atherton, Calif., who indicated
that the money should be used to
encourage and reward
distinguished teaching to
relatively young faculty mem
bers who have demonstrated
exceptional ability to encourage
students to reason rather than to
memorize The awards, in his
words, should “stimulate an
interest in inspired teaching in
the classroom and in con
ference.”
The trust fund, with one or two
$1,000 awards made annually
from accumulated interest, is
administered by the University
Development Fund.
Bergquist was selected by a
committee from nominations
made by faculty, students and
alumni.
A native ol Sacramento,
California, Bergquist has taught
at the University School of Music
for nine years. Previously he had
taught at Marines College of
Music in New York, and
Columbia University.
He is a graduate of Marines
College of Music, where he
received his Baccalaureate
degree in 1958. He had previously
attended Eastman School of
Music in Rochester, N.Y.
Columbia University awarded his
master’s degree in 1960 and his
doctoral degree in 1964, both in
musicology. From 1960 to 1962,
he held the Clarence Barker
Musical Scholarship at Colum
bia.
He is a member of the
American Musicological Society
and has served as secretary of
the Pacific Northwest Chapter
since 1968, and on the Council
since 1971. He is also a member of
the College of Music Society and
the Music Library Association.
Bergquist has performed
professionally on bassoon with a
woodwind quintet in New York
for Young Audiences, Inc., and on
tour with Little Orchestra Society
of New York. He played also in
student orchestras and chamber
ensembles while at Eastman and
Mannes. He has been a member
of the University Woodwind
Quintet since 1964, with frequent
performances in Eugene and
elsewhere. He has played with
the Eugene Symphony Orchestra
since 1966, making a number of
solo appearances.
In 1972, the woodwind Quintet,
with Bergquist as bassoonist,
made a recording, “New Music
for Woodwind Quintet,” that has
been put out by Advance
Records.
In 1971, Bergquist was on
sabbatical leave for eight
months. He spent most of that
time in London, making an
analytical study of Mahler’s
Symphony No. 10 in relation to its
published sketches.
